Superman's Latest Manga Will Be Ending Soon
The Man of Steel is considered to be one of the biggest comic book characters period, with Clark Kent protecting the world as Superman for decades. With the Last Son of Krypton appearing in countless movies and television shows, it's no surprise to see that Superman received a manga series of his own, though as the old saying goes, all good things must come to an end. The manga series, "Superman Vs. Meshi" is set to release its final chapter this summer, with Clark apparently set to team up with a certain Dark Knight in the last installment.
North American comic book characters are slowly but surely receiving stories within the medium of manga, with one of the most popular being Deadpool: Samurai, which sees the Marvel Merc WIth A Mouth battling against villains while also being given the opportunity to team up with none other than My Hero Academia's All Might. On the DC Comics front, the comic company already saw some unique manga stories of its own hit the stands, with one featuring Batman and the Justice League and another focusing on the strange story of the Joker attempting to raise a baby Batman in a strange twist of fate.
Twitter User Manga Mogura RE shared the news that "Superman Vs. Meshi" would be coming to an end next month on June 14th, seeing Superman teaming up with Batman to conclude his journey through the world of Japanese food with a new cover being released to celebrate the occasion:
The medium of manga has become a juggernaut of sales in North America, creating some major competition for the likes of Marvel and DC Comics, so it makes sense that these comic companies are telling stories within the medium that originated in Japan. With the COVID-19 pandemic helping to push sales of manga and comic books alike, it doesn't seem as though sales numbers are going to decrease any time soon.
While no new manga has been announced to star Superman to fill the place of this series, we wouldn't be surprised if we see the Man of Steel making a comeback within this medium.
Are you sad to see Superman's first manga come to an end? Do you think we'll see another manga series created for the Last Son of Krypton? Feel free to let us know in the comments or hit me up directly on Twitter @EVComedy to talk all things comics, anime, and the world of DC Comics.
